"THE INTERNET MOON" - TERMS OF ACQUISITION OF SPACE

Last Updated November 30th, 2018

DEFINITIONS

PROVIDER is the company "The Internet Moon LLC", which is based on United States and operates internationally by means of Internet hosted services. SITE is the web site and set of services hosted at the Internet domain and subdomains under "theinternetmoon.com", which belongs to the PROVIDER. SPACE is a single contiguous, delimited, well-defined and fixed-size area in the surface of the virtual sphere that the SITE presents to users; since the sphere is virtual, so is the SPACE area, and so is the SPACE itself; there is currently no actual physical space, and there might never be. SPACE is also the object of the ACQUISITION. The SPACE will be owned by the person or entity that initiates and concludes the ACQUISITION operation. The ACQUISITION is the operation initiated by YOU voluntarily and that makes YOU the owner of the SPACE. YOU are/is the person or entity that can sign in and use the SITE to perform ACQUISITION, or modifications on the spaces that you own.

ACQUISITION TERMS

1. YOU have the right to initiate an ACQUISITION if: 1) there is one or more spaces available to be delivered in a first-come, first-serve basis, or 2) there is a SPACE being explicitly transferred to YOU, either directly or by means of a transfer code. In any of such cases, YOU are not required to proceed with the ACQUISITION. YOU agree that YOU are not being pressured by the PROVIDER or by the SITE to perform an ACQUISITION, and YOU are free to ignore any advertisement or notice and not perform the ACQUISITION at all. The PROVIDER takes no responsibility if you decide to not perform an ACQUISITION either by mistake or intentionally, and the PROVIDER takes limited responsibilities, all defined in these terms, if you decide to perform an ACQUISITION.

2. YOU understand and accept that "The Internet Moon" is a virtual sphere displayed only at connected devices. The SPACE and "The Internet Moon" have no relation of any kind with the actual Moon (the natural satellite that orbits the Earth) or with any astronomical body or object, or with locations of the Earth itself. Having ownership of the SPACE does not entitle YOU to any right regarding any physical space, and does not add any responsibility to the PROVIDER to provide YOU any service or good related to any physical space.

3. In case YOU decide to perform an ACQUISITION, YOU understand and accept that: 1) Maintaining the SITE implies into costs and efforts that require financial, technical and human resources; it is impossible to predict, and therefore place unlimited guarantees, that these resources will always be available to the PROVIDER, to the SITE or to YOU, or even that PROVIDER will exist as a legal entity forever; therefore YOU understand that "owning a virtual space" implies into reasonable higher risk of losses than "owning a physical space". 2) The SITE may be subject to events that cause it to shut down or fail, fully or partially; examples of such events include but are not limited to failures or catastrophes in the infrastructure that is responsible for hosting, storage, communication, transmission and exposure of SITE assets and digital elements, malicious attacks from hackers, bots or other entities, law enforcement actions, and bugs or human errors during operation; the PROVIDER will try to keep the SITE up and working properly by employing efforts to remediate such events, but the PROVIDER itself may suffer limitations in the ability of doing so, which again implies into lack of unlimited guarantees. 3) The PROVIDER is a small and familiar company, and utilizes shared resources that might not be available at the moment YOU perform a request or inquiry; the PROVIDER relies mostly on automated processes, for most or even all SITE operations, and in case these operations fail, or in case YOU have a demand that cannot be fulfilled by automated processes, it may take an indefinite amount of time (months or even years) to attend your demand.

4. The ownership of the SPACE is subject to these terms, and may be terminated abruptly by 1) natural disasters, virtual or physical attacks or other catastrophic events suffered at the SITE, the PROVIDER or the hosting infrastructure; 2) circumstances that prevents proper maintenance of the SITE or the operation of the PROVIDER as a lawfully registered company, including but not limited to excessive rise of maintaining costs, fees or taxes, bankruptcy, evasion of human resources, or other changes in law or available resources; 3) violations of these terms, performed by YOU or other SITE users, individually, in group or "en masse".

5. The ACQUISITION must be performed by following instructions provided by the SITE. The SITE may or may not require a payment in order to complete the ACQUISITION. If the SITE requires a payment and YOU fail to provide this payment, the ACQUISITION will not be fulfilled. The SITE may or may not require a transfer code, or impose other electronically verifiable requirement. If the SITE does so and YOU fail to provide the requirement, the ACQUISITION will not be fulfilled. The ACQUISITION is only complete when the SITE clearly states so, or when YOU receive a communication email or otherwise form of communication saying so, whichever happens first.

6. After the ACQUISITION is completed, YOU have the right to change the digital content that is displayed or exposed in the SPACE, and the behavior of the SPACE when users click on it, limited to the options that are available in the SITE, and subject to these terms. YOU must be aware of the content that YOU placed in the SPACE, and in case external conditions change such as the content that YOU have placed violates these terms, YOU must remove or modify the content immediately. The fact that YOU own the SPACE does NOT give YOU the right to put or expose by other means any content, behavior or reference in the SPACE or other locations of the SITE.

7. YOU do not have the right to put in the SPACE or make it expose by any means: 1) content that is unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, inflammatory, pornographic, profane material, hate speech, copyright violations or any material that could constitute or encourage conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or violate any law; 2) pictures, sounds, videos, documents or information from persons or entities for which you don't have authorization; 3) viruses, trojan horses, worms, malware, spyware or other computer programming routines that damage, interfere with, intercept, or expropriate any system, data, or personal information. YOU declare that YOU will never execute those activities directly or indirectly, and also never help, assist or give permission by any means, including but not limited to access to your account or device, to any person or entity that may engage in those activities.

8. YOU do not have the right to use the SITE or any content or digital feature included or referenced by the SITE, to gain illegal or unauthorized access to computers, networks, devices or physical locations, by hacking, hijacking, exploiting, blackmailing or other means. YOU declare that YOU will never execute those activities directly or indirectly, and also never help, assist or give permission by any means, including but not limited to access to your account or device, to any person or entity that may engage in those activities.

9. YOU understand and accept that other users, persons and entities, including the PROVIDER, have freedom (subject to applicable laws and agreements) to put the content and behaviors of their choice in areas close or related to your SPACE, or advertisements in the other areas of the SITE. The content and behaviors from others may or may not be associated or related to the content and behaviors placed by YOU in your SPACE. The PROVIDER is not responsible for any derogatory or other specific aspect that contents or behaviors from others may have in relation to YOU, any organization that you represent, or past, current or future content of your SPACE. YOU have the right to expose others content or behaviors published in the SITE, as malicious, derogatory, abusive or anyhow damaging, by either using controls that the SITE offers, or by contacting the PROVIDER using forms or a method of contact offered by the SITE. Although the PROVIDER monitors content for abuse and unlawful use, YOU accept that the remediation may not be immediate and may take days to be effective. The PROVIDER will retain the right to evaluate and determine if the content is abusive or not, and YOU understand that due to subjective nature, the outcome may not be the one that YOU desire.

10. YOU understand and accept that the contents, behaviors and referenced material of your SPACE will be public, and may be exposed or reproduced in other medias, locations and by other persons or entities, at any time, temporarily or permanently, without any authorization from YOU further than accepting these terms, and without entitling YOU to any compensation. YOU accept that contents, behaviors and referenced material of your SPACE may be exposed or reproduced at outdoors, banners, signs, wall or floor paintings or covers, magazines, newspapers, television, monitors, devices, other websites, merchandise including but not limited to t-shirts, pens and others, and other places, in public or private locations, in physical, virtual or digital locations, without further authorization from YOU and without entitling YOU to any compensation or new right.

11. The PROVIDER has full rights, and may continuously or eventually, automatically or manually, review the contents, behaviors and referenced material of the SPACE that belongs to YOU, and other publications YOU perform in the SITE. If during these reviews YOU are found to be violating the present terms, the PROVIDER has the right to, and may immediately or eventually, perform one or more of the following actions: 1) clear or modify the contents, behaviors or referenced materials of the SPACE; 2) lock the SPACE, temporarily or indefinitely, to prevent YOU from modifying the contents, behaviors or referenced materials of the SPACE, or to transfer the SPACE; 3) remove from YOU the ownership of the SPACE, temporarily, indefinitely or as a definitive action, without entitling YOU to any right of compensation, refund or damage repair; 4) suspend the account that belongs to YOU, in order to prevent modifications or transfers of any space that is manageable through such account; 5) terminate the account that belongs to YOU, temporarily, indefinitely or as a definitive action, without entitling YOU any right of compensation, refund or damage repair.

12. The PROVIDER allows a limited number of modifications in the SPACE for free, every month; or unlimited number of modifications if YOU use different months to avoid the monthly limit. The PROVIDER may charge for other services, including but not limited to: 1) promoting your SPACE by giving it a highlighted appearance, or by placing it at the SITE visitor's view, or by displaying your SPACE in other medias; 2) perform bulk operations on your behalf, such as modifying multiple spaces at once; 3) making your SPACE exhibit special behaviors, not available to every user; 4) help you into fitting content at your SPACE; 5) help or intermediate the sale of the SPACE; 6) transfer your SPACE to other person, entity or account; 7) other publishing, advertising or commercial services that may be available in the future. The charging examples in this section are mere examples and may or may not be offered by the SITE or by the PROVIDER; the PROVIDER has no obligation to perform any service that is not actively being offered, even if YOU are willing to pay.

13. The features currently present or exposed at the SITE are subject to change or removal, temporarily or permanently. This includes, but is not limited to 1) ability to reference the SPACE, or any other space from external pages, with hyperlink that highlights the SPACE, or with other forms of references; 2) zooming, repositioning, moving, changing colors, lighting or any other form of manipulation of the SPACE or visual elements, such as the virtual sphere itself; 3) ability to display the SPACE or visual elements, such as the virtual sphere itself, in 3D or other advanced forms such as stereo-3D; 4) controls and features for placing content in the SPACE, for editing the SPACE, or for fitting, adjustment or editing images or other contents in the SPACE; 5) controls and features to transfer the SPACE to other accounts or entities; 6) ability to sell your SPACE to others; 7) ability to show image, video or other referenced content in the SPACE; 8) special effects and behaviors at the SPACE or other visual elements such as the virtual sphere itself; 9) support to any specific device, browser software or platform; 10) support to any specific archive, content or media format. The PROVIDER is not responsible for any damage that may incur from the change or removal of such features.

14. While the SITE can certainly be used for advertisement by, for instance, displaying your SPACE when any user visits the SITE, the efficacy of this is limited by the 3D nature of the virtual sphere: there will be moments where users visit the SITE and your SPACE is not in the visible area (i.e. it is in the "other side of the moon", or in a partially visible location). The SITE is programmed to display the surface and the SPACE at a random area, and there is no guarantee that the randomly chosen area will include your SPACE. In order to highlight your SPACE, YOU must either purchase a promotion service or use an available SITE option, such as obtaining a link that highlights your SPACE. Depending on the option, YOU may be required to distribute or promote the link by other means, such as sending an email to customers from your email account, or adding the link to the SPACE in a blog or other page. The PROVIDER is not responsible for distribution or promotion by any means, unless explicitly stated in the SITE or other agreement that YOU may have with the PROVIDER.

15. The PROVIDER may, periodically or eventually, contact YOU by email, using the address that YOU provided to the SITE, or using the SITE itself (subject to YOU be signed in), to communicate facts, events, promotions, required actions, or other circumstances, regarding the SPACE, your account, the services and events that YOU have purchased or initiated, or other matters related to either the SITE or the PROVIDER. If YOU decide to attend at a different email address, YOU must sign in at the SITE and edit your account and email address. The PROVIDER is not responsible for missed communications caused by spam filters, delivery of emails from the PROVIDER rejected because your inbox is full, adoption of new email address without YOU doing a proper account editing action at the SITE, errors or failures in your email provider, negligence, lack of attention or other issues that cause YOU to skip emails sent by the PROVIDER, or accidental deletion of emails sent by the PROVIDER.

16. The PROVIDER will mark your account at the SITE as inactive if, for the period of one year, YOU do not sign in at the SITE. Once your account is marked as inactive, the PROVIDER may attempt to send to YOU emails with account re-activation instructions. If the PROVIDER chooses to communicate, there will be at least three attempts, separated by two months each (there may be more attempts). If after six months from the first communication (at least one year and six months of inactivity), YOU fail to follow instructions to reactivate your account, then the PROVIDER may clear and remove all contents from the SPACE, and remove any purchased special behavior or promotion associated with your account or the SPACE. Although cleared, the SPACE will still belong to you, and the PROVIDER may or may not generate further communication attempts. If, however, after six months from the SPACE clear event (at least two years of inactivity), YOU fail to reactivate your account, the PROVIDER may claim the SPACE back. At this moment YOU will have lost ownership of the SPACE due to account inactivity.

17. As per our privacy policy, YOU have the right to terminate your account any time. If YOU choose to terminate your account, using either the SITE controls, or by submitting a request to the PROVIDER, YOU accept to lose ownership of the SPACE, as well termination of any services YOU might have purchased from the PROVIDER. When your account is terminated, the SPACE may be immediately or eventually cleared, and any behavior or promotion applied to the SPACE or your account may be terminated as well. The mere request or action of terminating your account does not entitle YOU to any right of compensation, refund or damage repair.
